The on-going attempts to blame Russia for "weaponising" grain and food supplies are completely without merit.
❗️ Faсts: Russia is a responsible member of the global food market. It is the Western illegitimate sanctions that are in fact damaging global food security.
We are deeply concerned about a possible food crisis and are well aware of the importance of supplies of socially important commodities, including food, to the socio-economic development of countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East and the achievement of SDGs.
The illegitimate unilateral restrictions imposed by the EU, the US and their satellites remain the main obstacle to normal export relations between Russia (and Belarus) and buyers of grain and fertilizers.

🔎 RIA Novosti have launched a new special project - a journalistic investigation “Joint. Drug War of Ukraine Against Russia".
The project presents hard evidence of the hybrid war launched by Kiev against our country 8 years ago with the main goal to “drown the Russians in drugs”.
📰 Just a small excerpt:
The Interior Ministry’s Centre for Information and Analysis has reported an annual increase in the trafficking of synthetic drugs in our country, from 5 percent of the market in 2014 to 60 percent in 2021.
Security services officers told RIA Novosti that Ukrainians set up laboratories in border regions to smuggle drugs into Russia or organise their manufacturing and sale in Russia.
In 2019, 62 kg of drugs were confiscated in the Belgorod Region. The figure increased nearly nine-fold, to 534 kg, in 2020. The figure doubled in 2021, when security services confiscated 1,066 kg.

❌ Myth: Russia is using energy supplies for political purposes.
✅ Faсts: It is the EU which, by imposing or planning to impose further unilateral sanctions against Russian energy supplies, is politicizing the energy sphere, attempting to use interdependences between energy consumers and suppliers as an instrument of political pressure, while damaging its own economy and the well-being of its citizens and aggravating what is already a precarious situation in the global energy markets.
Unfounded allegations that Moscow is using energy supplies for political aims are part and parcel of the fact-twisting information warfare unleashed by the EU and the US, the latter seeking to increase its LNG exports to the EU.

📆 Today marks the 239th Anniversary of the foundation of Sevastopol. It was on this day in 1783 that Rear Admiral Thomas MacKenzie ordered to lay the foundations of the first four stone structures in Sevastopol: a house for the commander of the Sevastopol naval squadron, a chapel, a smithy in the Admiralty, and a wharf, which was later given the name of Grafskaya.
❗️ An important landmark in the contemporary history of Sevastopol was undoubtedly the March 16, 2014 Crimean referendum on the status of Crimea. As a result of the vote, 95.6% of referendum participants spoke in favour of the city joining the Russian Federation.
🇷🇺 Today, the legendary Sevastopol retains its honorary title as the main base of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, a city of martial glory and valour of Russian sailors.

🎙 Remarks to the Press by Permanent Representative Vassily Nebenzia regarding shelling of Donetsk by Ukrainian military
Read in full
🔷 The Ukrainian military continue to shell civilians. Recently their assaults have intensified. And on June 13 the Kiev regime launched a large-scale shelling of the city of Donetsk and adjacent areas in the Donetsk People’s Republic.
🔷 This shelling could not bring to Kiev any military advantage as Donetsk is not on the line of contact. There are no military objects where the shells fell. The Ukrainian military deliberately targeted civilian districts and infrastructure – hospitals, markets, residential areas.
🔷 It is a disgrace that the Western media largely stay blind, deaf and numb to these appalling incidents. And those who speak up, only do so to promote nonsense that the city was shelled by the Russian forces.
🔷 I would like to say to the Western countries supplying weaponry to Ukraine – the blood of civilians is on your hands.
